old city philadelphia family pictures | the iorios

This great (and photogenic) family contacted me for some family pictures in Philadelphia before they moved back to their home state.  They wanted some images among the gorgeous textures and colors of Old City where they lived, and we were blessed with some beautiful sunlight as well.  I’ve rarely worked with a family quite as outgoing and delighted to be in front of the camera (or at least really great at acting delighted!) as these fine people, despite the 140 degree heat* that afternoon!

After shooting among the bricks, cobblestones, and pillars of Old City for a while, we ended the evening at one of their favorite haunts, Franklin Square, for some ice cream and a carousel ride.  Perfect.

* That’s a rough estimate, with a possible 45 degree margin of error either way…
